RAMMING ATTACK:
Early this morning, a Palestinian rammed his car into a group of IDF soldiers in #Jerusalem. The #terror attack injured 12 soldiers, one of whom is in serious condition.
We are currently pursuing the terrorist.

During the hours of the riots tomorrow, weather in #Gaza is expected to be around 80 degrees Fahrenheit. This heat is a danger to children, who are susceptible to dehydration & heat-stroke. We call on Hamas to keep their children in school & not endanger them at the riots.

Imagine that a violent mob of 10 people were rioting minutes from your home, among them armed terrorists.
Now multiply that by 1,000.
10,000 Gazans rioted & threw grenades along the border fence with Israel. We were there to make sure that they didn’t reach Israeli homes.
